Of the companies that tour Kauai, this is the nicest plane. My wife and I were the only passengers and the tour was geared towards our interest. The day was overcast, so we felt lucky when, after waiting for awhile, there was a break in the cloud cover. We felt safe and the overall ride was smooth. Picture taking opportunities were exceptional from the front, a little tighter from the back because of the wings and relatively low profile engines. The guide was great and deserved a good tip. A helicopter ride wasn’t an option for us, but I can’t imagine a better experience.
